Do you have a good source for 100% natural latex foam for couch cushions

January 3, 2019 6:28 AM

Hi! I see a lot on line about natural latex mattresses, but we are working on having a couch redone and we want to put 100% natural latex in the cushions. Our upholsterer does not have a source. Does anyone have anyone that they have used for custom cut latex foam, 100% natural? Thank you!

Best answer: KTT Enterprises is kinda-sorta the retail arm of one of the biggest US latex foam manufacturers, so I'd check them out first.

Mayer's Bedding specializes in mattress toppers, but they, too, purchase and ship direct from the manufacturer, so they may be willing to work with you on cushions. I've done business with them and am a satisfied customer.

You're right to go with latex cushions for your sofa. True, they cost a lot more, but they will retain their firmness and spring for decades, instead of flattening out after a few years the way cheap conventional foam does. Cushions used to be mainly latex, but the cheaper foam came to the fore years ago to keep costs down.

It might be helpful if you could tell us where in the world you're shopping. We can assume, but it's better to be sure.

I have heard that the place to go for this sort thing is the aptly-named foamorder.com.

I recently ordered custom cut 100% natural latex foam through FoamSource for some dinette chairs I had redone.
